I have just installed a new NF7-S motherboard in my system. Every time I
shut down my computer won't power back up unless I disconnect the power
supply and re-connect it first. I tried to see if there was a bios setting
that might be causing it, but I don't see anything. Any suggestions are
appreciated. I'm guessing it's something simple, but I just haven't dealt
with it before.

I have the same problem with 1800+, not overclocked, I spent arround 12h+
for installing harware and trying to make it work, also screwing my
brother's WinXP install on his computer, here's what I get:

cold boot:

can't get into BIOS if I don't disconnect my HDD's power, when I unplug it,
I can enter BIOS, also get past table like where it lists IRQs, memory banks
and other stuff, when I get wrong system disk(like non-boot diskette during
floppy boot) I plug HDD power and it works fine - windows loading and so on

PSU is 400W+, only CPU, 40Gb WD 7200rpm disk, 2x256Mb DDR ram
